Views are defined by their frame/bounds rectangles. But there's

the fact that the "real" edge is a rectangle will not be apparent.
Unfortunately the OP is still going to find things difficult. A lot
of Apple's standard views, such as NSTableView/NSScrollView seem to
set their own custom clipping path during drawing which overrides
anything you set, so it's not as straightforward as it might seem.
I agree with Kyle, it is probably a good idea to rethink the design.
Ah, I was reading the OP's question as if he wanted round corners only
for his custom views, not all possible views. In that case, yes,
probably a silly thing to try and attempt, and destined to fail.
